Rin couldn’t help, but worry a bit as she left Hana to confront Minerva. “Oh no… I’m going to need to find Joseph quickly.” She said hoping that she could someway help keep any unnecessary deaths from occurring. ------------------- Seeing and hearing Espada Joseph’s anger flared. He wanted so much to rip the Spaniard spine out through his throat. Better yet, he wanted to rip him apart limb from limb and watch him suffer as he slowly died. But then he noticed something. He could feel Hana. Along with her was Minerva, but he focused on the feeling he got from Hana which helped subdue the irrationality he was feeling. He sighed managing to regain his thoughts. He would have been fine. At least until Espada spoke. “You know…” Joseph said a low voice his tone clearly displaying his anger. “You don’t really have the luxury of talking so frivolously. After all, the crap you spout will be your last words.” He said as his magic power exploded. His hair seemed to stand up as an aura of white magic engulfed him. He clenched his fist. “But don’t worry. I’m sure you’ll be welcomed into hell with open arms.” Joseph said as he shot off from the ground appearing in front of Espada in a fraction of a second. The look of anger on his face was evident. He was serious about this fight and wouldn’t be holding back anything. If Espada was smart he wouldn’t take this first punch lightly. If it made contact the holy light of the White Dragon would explode out with enough destructive force to destroy half of the entire Emiya mansion. That was a lot of power. ------------------- Tamotsu laughed a bit. “I know. I hate sappy crap.” He commented before slapping Misaki on the back. “But it’s not like your life is void of it or anything.” He added obviously referring to Ryuji and to a lesser extent Melissa. Without another word his body became engulfed in flames and he charged forward plowing through the horde of mages like nothing following Takashi and Zephyr’s respective scents. “Rook! Stay with Misa and Meli!” He order the red exceed who was currently using various combo moves with Melissa and Misaki while in his battle form. “Right! I’d just get in the way in a fight between three dragons!” Rook said as he swung around the large sword he’d begun using after the first Shade War.(Heh Lily’s sword of course x3 Also Misaki still has Leo :O) Still the red exceed was somewhat worried about his partner. ------------------- Takashi had somewhat been enjoying the fact that the area he was guarding with Zephyr hadn’t been approached yet. Maybe this meant that before they were forced to fight the Shade and all the other Dark mages would be taken out first. Hell maybe he and Zephyr would be freed before having to fight. Wishful thinking was all it was though. “Fuck…” He grumbled. “He’s coming.” He said sensing and smelling his brother now making a b-line in the two dragon slayer’s collective direction. ------------------- Chris was silent. His eyes were closed as they approached the chaos. So much had changed. HE had changed. He wasn’t the little brat who spent all his time in his room reading anymore. He even had his sisters back on his side again. “Fuck… And here I always thought I’d have been better off dying that night.” He said with a small chuckled as he managed to stand up and remain perfectly still on the moving beasts back. “Amelia. Luka. We should get ready to separate from Jessica and Arthur.” He said sternly before glancing at Arthur. “You have three missions. Destroy that thing. Protect Jessica. And come back alive.” He said emphasizing the last sentence more so than the other’s. “Got it?” He asked as they neared the already raging battle. “That goes for you two ya know Chris.” Jessica chimed in with a giggle. “Of course, you’ll be protecting Amelia.” She corrected herself quickly. “Now you three should hop off. Especially you Luka.” She said with a small smile before pointing out to the ball of flames crashing through the dark mages. “Unless you wanna lose flame brain.” She giggled having the feeling that wherever Tamotsu was going was where Luka should be two. It was probably important for both of them. And Luka probably already understood why he was leaving the girls to fight with Rook and trying to break into the castle himself.
